According to Brooklyn Bean Roastery's website, all their flavored coffees are light-roast. see: http://www.brooklynbeans.com/bbr_roasts/flavored/

It doesn't say on the product description but based on taste I would say it is a light roast.

Espresso is a type of grind. You can make a medium roast an espresso. Yes, most times, a dark roast may be used, but to taste the true harvest of a roast, one does not need to make an espresso with just dark roasts. That is the burnt taste many refer to, because the beans are truly burnt to get that dark roast. I am a roaster.

In general: The darker the roast the less caffeine and the lighter the roast the more caffeine. The caffeine gets cooked out during roasting; so, in general, this holds true with different types of beans and regions also affecting this.

The finer the grind the stronger you coffee will be. I'd start with a medium fine and them adjust from there to your taste. If using a finer grind don't pack the grounds in too firm as the water won't be able to run through. I've also found the baristas at Starbucks to be very helpful when it come to grinding and brewing coffee.

It depends what kind of coffee you usually prefer. I like a darker roast than most people drink, so I use a medium-dark roast from a local coffee house (Caribou Coffee, Obsidian). If you are comparing to Starbucks, they usually use their Kenya blend for their espresso drinks. Start with your favorite bean, grind it medium-fine (not as fine as espresso, but not as coarse as for drip brewing). The grind matters greatly. If it's too fine, it can clog the filter and cause problems with brewing. If it's too coarse, you don't get the best flavor extraction. I hope this helps.

Yes, but I find it less strong than most other medium blend K-Cups. Still stronger than light roast, but not as strong as most medium roasts.

Dear "L", I do not know the percentage of coffee to the sweet cream added to the pumpkin spice, the base coffee is 100% Arabica coffee. How that rates as medium or strong or dark roast I have no idea, however there is a phone #for more information at Green Mountain Coffee 1-888-879-4627, or you can continue on-line @ GreenMountainCoffee.comLuck to you and let me know what you find out in your comparisons...I've already finished off the cocoa so I don't have the box to gain any information for you there. Sincerely, B Seawright

Its mild in my opinion. If you want a strong taste you'll have to look for a darker roast. If you want mild you've come to the right place.

I have been using this for coffee roasting for 1 year now and it works very well. For a nice light to medium roast this is more than adequate and is pretty fool-proof. I roast for an average of 10 minutes per batch and all is well.

Hello! This is not a dark roast similar to a French Roast, it's a regular roast.

As I just had this coffee twenty minutes ago, I would say it is more like a mild/moderate coffee with a light hazelnut flavor.

All you have to do is add more coffee.orif you prefer add less coffee for a lighter cup.

I've only had the Fog Chaser and French Roast. I'm no connoisseur, but the Fog Chaser is more original and has a nice flavor. Not too bold and smooth (not bitter or too acidic). If you like other French Roast blends, you'd like theirs as well.

I would say that the Rainforest Blend is more of a medium blend / flavor - If you are looking for a lighter blend, I would choose their Breakfast Blend - or want a little strong, I lLOVE their Espresso Roast. Cheers!

this is a very dark french roast. A couple of tablespoons of this ground coffee is enough for an entire pot!!

Yes. It says "medium roast" on the ones that I purchased. The full description is Caribou Blend, medium roast. If you like full flavor (like French Roast) this is not it. This is weaker than I like, but certainly not "light roast."

Try medium fine to fine for a good starting point. Again, depends on the coffee, the temperature of the water, and your taste preferences.
